As Eskom hints at more drama to come
[permalink]
You've probably noticed that things have been a little quiet around here of late. There is a reason for this. We've had an installation of sorts, here at 2oceansvibe HQ. Some techie guys came in yesterday to install a "UPS" for us. Whilst some of you probably think this might be the name of a courier company, I can confirm that it is in fact an "Uninterruptible Power Source." Check out the new toy. Oh yeah, that's what I'm talking about!
My new UPS - very sexy
In layman's terms, it's one of those things that keeps the electricity going, even when there is a power failure or load shedding. And it doesn't take petrol - it just plugs into the wall and recharges - like a rechargeable battery! No noise at all! I know! How can this be!? I was compelled to get one after a recent report that Eskom cannot confirm 100% that there won't be load shedding during winter. No shit. Have you ever been able to confirm anything 100%?
This little puppy I bought gives me an hour of power, even when there is no electricity. Are you with me? It won't keep me going for ever, but when there is a power failure I will have enough time to send off important emails and write whatever drivel I have for you at the time!
The guys I used, called Uninterrupted.co.za (fair enough) have other units that can power you or your company for MUCH longer, if you want to go for that vibe. Whatever it is you require, they are pretty cool and speak English, rather than Geek. Basically they don't leave you feeling sodomised, having paid for things that you don't understand.

So I told these guys that if they had the installation done in less than an hour, I would mention them to the trusting 2oceansvibe readers and community.
Well suck me sideways, it took them half an hour!
So if you don't know the first thing about computers and electricity, and you're looking for people that speak YOUR language, get in touch with these guys. It just so happens that they're cheaper as well..
Check out their website www.uninterrupted.co.za and give them a go! They come with the 2oceansvibe stamp of approval!
